More from the week of January 13th

One of the highlights of our week was the graphing/store project mentioned in our previous post. Here are a few other things that we have been working on. We have been learning about verbs. Each student made a list of ten verbs that tell what they like to do. Then they made a wordle Here is one of the 'wordles'.

We learned a lot about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. (In fact next week we will feature our Dr. King paragraphs!) We learned what it means to be a peacemaker. Here a couple of our peace doves.

In science we completed an experiment on chromatography. We learned what happened to black ink on a paper towel strip as water passed over it. We saw how the black ink was composed of many beautiful colors. You can see more of this at our upcoming science fair! Here are our before and after pictures. The students enjoyed this experiment.

Another project that the students enjoyed was making the paper plate fish. We learned about the first four apostles Jesus called. We learned that Jesus called them to "fish" for people. The fish we made remind us of our call to be followers of Jesus.

We would love to know what you think about our work!
